While once the domain of Renn faires and Eras Tours, trinket trading has exploded at Gen Con over the past few years. To better understand this new phenomenon, we talk to Bri Pettegrow-Lajoie, the head of the official Gen Con Trinket Traders Facebook group! On this episode, we discuss what trinket trading is, what qualifies as a trinket, the etiquette for trading, and exactly how fun it is to drive from Maine to Indy and back again!
- Join the Facebook Group!
- Attend a Trinket Trade Meetup at Gen Con 2025!
- Maybe play a game that Bri is GMing for Kobold Press?
